Personal History
At the Academy, Datan studied Operations, Science and Engineering. He found some of his time there somewhat trying, finding himself as the butt of pranks on more than one occasion. He did not feel the desire to explore San Francisco, particularly at night, with his classmates as he prefered the solitude of his room.
However, it was not always possible thanks to Richard Marston, a life-loving Human Cadet and the person who Human's would identify as 'Best Friend'.
Richard took Datan on several adventures around San Francisco on an evening, making several attempts at getting the Vulcan drunk and so on. They also engage in sightseeing during vacation time, that did appeal to the Vulcan Cadet.

Personal History
Early Life/Pre-Starfleet Career: Datan was born to a near standard Vulcan household, his Father S'Vonn was a Professor at the Vulcan Science Academy, his Mother T'Prell was part of the Federation Diplomatic Corps. His upbringing in the form of his teachings was in the strictest Vulcan sense, the only choice he was allowed to make was with whom he would be joined, if at all. During Pon Farr he would have to endure the treatment process of a Doctor. That choice came about after his Mother was exposed to differing lifestyles during her professional career, she like few other Vulcan's agreed that the choice should be the individuals.
Datan did well at school and considered three choices of career, the idea of becoming a Diplomat and following in the footsteps of his mother had great appeal to him. The idea of meeting diverse cultures and so on could only expand his mind, that was his belief. Another choice was the Vulcan Science Academy, science was a subject he enjoyed while growing up. The other choice was Starfleet, which he believed was logical in the long run, as the organisation could offer the opportunities of the other two choices if he so chose.
Academy/Technical Academy (if Starfleet):

Richard took Datan on several adventures around San Francisco on an evening, making several attempts at getting the Vulcan drunk and so on. They also engage in sightseeing during vacation time, that did appeal to the Vulcan Cadet.

Please write a brief sample post from your character’s perspective:
Cadet Datan sat in his Academy accommodation and was quite content in the reading of Captain James T Kirk and his historic five-year mission. With the logs of the time that were readily available to anybody without a high-security level, Datan would find it pleasing to read about the renowned Starfleet Vulcan Officer Spock.
The chime that was connected to his door sounded, thus indicating someone required entry into the Vulcan's private space. It did not take much in the way of logical deduction to for him to figure out who it was, however, he was open to the possibility of being wrong.
"Come in please," He called as he placed a bookmark into the hardback version of Kirk's adventures. The door hissed open and confirmed Datan's suspicion, it was who he'd expected to be at the other side of the door.
"So, the Port of San Francisco?" The Human male asked.
"Negative," Datan said placing the book on a side table and standing to greet his guest as the latter entered the room, "I would prefer to remain on campus this evening, to read and meditate, then perhaps I will have an early night."
"What? You are kidding right?" The Human asked with a horrified expression on his tanned face, "Cadet Jonara is going out, you know she digs you right?"
The expression was curious but Datan understood what his friend meant about Jonara, the Bolian female Cadet did seem to find him pleasing. "That maybe Richard, but I have no desire to strengthen my friendship with Cadet Jonara."
"Oh Datan, you are a stubborn so and so!" Richard declared, "Sure I can't change your mind?"
"I am certain," Datan stated.
